20 Winter Date Ideas

1. Ice skating

A classic winter activity! This is a perfect winter date activity, plus a fun activity with friends too

2. Christmas tree hunting

Whether you live near the mountains and plan to go traipsing through the snow or just plan on going to a tree farm, this is the perfect day out. Afterward, you can curl up with a warm blanket and some hot cocoa!

3. Check out the Christmas lights

This is a good way to get out and about, pick up your favorite coffee or tea to go and go for a stroll with your date/spouse.

4. Take a scenic drive

The countryside is beautiful this time of year especially if you live in a place with snow!

5. Carriage ride

Nothing says romantic like a carriage through streets lit with Christmas lights. Bundle up and enjoy the ride!

6. Get baking

Enjoy a day of baking with your date/spouse, listen to some Christmas music and enjoy trying out some fun winter recipes.

7. Holiday movie night

Take an evening to relax and snuggle up on the couch with some popcorn and cocoa to watch all your favorite winter movies.

8. Go sledding

Provided you have the snow to sled in, this is a great winter outing. You can go just the two of you or take some friends, the more the merrier!

9. Go Christmas shopping

Hey, if you’re up for it why not get a little Christmas shopping done and make a day of it? It can be so stressful this time of year so make it fun!

10. Decorate for the holidays

Turn on some Christmas music, get some mugs of cocoa ready and break out those decorations!

11. Go caroling

I might recommend joining a group to do this with, it would be a lot less awkward than two random strangers standing and singing outside someone’s house!

12. Craft session

Have some Christmas themed crafting you want to get done? Make it a date.

13. Go to a Hockey game

If you or your date is a fan of sports this might be the perfect outing for you!

14. Get tickets to a Ballet or a play

If you haven’t seen the Nutcracker I highly recommend it, it’s an amazing ballet.

15. Have a board game night

If it’s too cold and you don’t feel like going outside you can always have a board game night!

16. Skiing/snowboarding/snowmobiling

Whatever your fancy, if you have the snow, these are always fun outdoor activities in the winter time.

17. Roast smores over a bonfire

If you don’t have access to a bonfire you could always just use your oven.
